• Direct Methods

  • Obstacles are Overcome
  • Viewing Alternate Routes
  • Changes in Objectives
  • Analysis and Conclusion
• Obstacles are Overcome

  • By making a conscious effort to do so in order to fulfil one's needs
  • An individual's mental stress is worn out if this type of impediment disappears
  • Practice and commitment are crucial in this purposeful endeavour
• Viewing Alternate Routes

  • If for some reason a person is unable to overcome the different hurdles that are created during the pursuit of his goal, then it is necessary to look for any alternate route or "solution"
• Changes in Objectives

  • When a person is unable to achieve their goal or purpose and overcomes the barriers that were not created, they give up on that aim and adopt a parallel target
• Analysis and Conclusion

  • A person loses mental equilibrium when he becomes preoccupied with the situation
  • To accomplish the objective, he must find a different way
  • Only a thorough examination of the circumstance and wise decision-making are required for this course
• Indirect Methods

  Unintentionally taken measures to avoid distress and grief
• Indirect Methods

  • Sublimation
  • Withdrawal
  • Regression
  • Identification
  • Dependency

  • Humans can succeed in any endeavour and fail in any
  • A person succeeds in other professions when he fails in one or feels lacking in himself
